Ingredients
- 1 pound Fresh lump crab meat
- 0.5 cup Almond flour
- 1 Egg
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 0.25 cup Chopped fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons Chopped green onions
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 3 tablespoons Coconut oil
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, gently pick through the crab meat to remove any shell fragments without breaking up the larger pieces of crab.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice until well combined.
Step 3
Add almond flour, chopped parsley, green onions, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to the egg mixture. Stir until everything is well mixed.
Step 4
Gently fold the crab meat into the mixture, being careful not to break it up too much. Shape the mixture into 8 crabcakes, about 2-3 inches in diameter.
Step 5
Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot and shimmering, carefully place the crabcakes in the skillet.
Step 6
Cook the crabcakes for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through, flipping once gently with a spatula.
Step 7
Remove the crabcakes from the skillet and drain them briefly on a paper towel if needed.
Step 8
Serve immediately with extra lemon wedges or your favorite Paleo-friendly sauce.
